Soundproofing is a "luxury" only if you consider, say, insulation or
accessibility to be luxuries.  As with those, retrofitting tends to be
clunky and expensive, and the results don't begin to approach what can be
achieved if the goal was incorporated in the design from the beginning.

Noise control strongly affects everyone's comfort, and for anyone with poor
hearing or overactive fight-or-flight responses, it really is an
accessibility issue, despite the tendency to limit such considerations to
more recognized impairments like paraplegia or blindness.
